In a world where emotion is regulated and intimacy is criminal, one wrong touch could cost her everything.
At Fairbridge Academy, every student wears their status on their wrist-green for compliant, yellow for unstable, red for dangerous. Eden Vale is a Yellow, one glitch away from losing her scholarship, her future, and her carefully constructed control. She knows the rules: stay calm, stay distant, stay unseen.
When rumors threaten to tip her status into the Red, Eden makes an impossible choice-ask Cassian Rowe, her rival turned top-ranked Green, to fake a relationship. It's a calculated move. Safe. Strategic. Until it isn't.
Because Cassian isn't as Green as he seems. And every touch between them-every glance, every lingering pause-draws them closer to the system's edge. As they navigate a web of surveillance, secrets, and the buried code her mother left behind, Eden must decide: how much is she willing to risk for something as dangerous as feeling?
Some codes weren't meant to be followed. Some were meant to be broken.

Code Zero
The world runs on power-and those who wield it are ranked, trained, and controlled. Within the walls of Aurenhelm Academy, hierarchy rules every aspect of life. Reds command, Blues excel, Purples endure, and Greens obey. But when an unidentified Manifested appears outside the capital-a boy with no recorded limit and no measurable signature-the system begins to unravel. The government calls him Code Zero. His power defies every known classification. His existence threatens the balance the Academy was built to maintain. Team Vale, led by the lowest-ranked leader in Academy history, is chosen to assist the authorities in locating and containing Code Zero. To the students, it sounds like an impossible assignment. To the government, it's expendable field data. What begins as a retrieval mission quickly spirals into something far greater: a race to understand whether Code Zero is a weapon, a warning, or the next stage of evolution itself.
